On trots out new Cyclon references
24/05/2024
Now Cyclon subscribers will have access to two new references, Cloudrise, for everyday running, and Cloudeasy, for training and everyday activities. They will no doubt appeal to a broad customer base, as Cloudneo, the inaugural product, was a high-performance running shoe. The subscription programme also includes a running top, Cyclon-T.
The upper of the Cyclon Cloudeasy reference is made from 100% recycled PET plastic and polyester. That of Cloudrise is made from a biobased nylon PA11 derived from castor bean oil.
Based in Terrebonne, Quebec, Loop Industries has developed a chemical recycling process for PET plastics and polyester fabrics using methanol as a solvent. It will be setting up a recycling facility in France with French chemicals group Suez in a €450 million investment and with a planned capacity of 70,000 tonnes per year.
